Boron tribromide → HCID 86618574, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (S)—N-(1-(ethylsulfonyl)piperidin-3-yl)-6-methoxybenzo[d]thiazol-2-amine (1.22 g, 3.43 mmol) in dichloromethane (25 ml) under nitrogen atmosphere was treated with boron tribromide (1M in dichloromethane, 7.5 ml) at 0° C. Stirring was continued for 10 min at 0° C. and for 135 min at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was carefully diluted with water (50 ml), ethyl acetate (200 ml) and treated with solid sodium bicarbonate (until no further gas development was observed). The mixture was stirred until phases became clear. The separated organic phase was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (2×75 ml), water (75 ml), brine (75 ml) and dried over sodium sulfate. Concentration in vacuo afforded crude (S)-2-(1-(ethylsulfonyl)piperidin-3-ylamino)benzo[d]thiazol-6-ol which was used in the next step without further purification. Yield: 1.15 g. ES/MS m/z 342.0 (MH+), Rt=1.86 min.
